ColeJ Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I figured someone would at least have mentioned in this thread about the Stars trademarking the Dallas Texans AHA/USHL logo for merchandising. I'm almost scared to mention it though, because I don't want to be bombarded with mouth breathers saying the Stars should adopt that name and logo full time and give the Stars identity back to Minnesota...... Wonder what we have in store for those logos? I said on my Facebook that Dallas Texans throwbacks would be the only scenario i can imagine where id be on board with the Stars wearing red, white, and blue... but truth be told, I've never seen any confirmation anywhere that the Texans wore those colors. Anyone know where to find out for sure? I've seen programs in blue and red, and programs actually in green and black, as unlikely as that combo is for their actual uniforms. New Stars ownership is so much more tight lipped than the old guard. It's so weird being kept in the dark on these plans, but I'm excited. Even if it's just for fan merchandising.

Morgan33 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Hem stripes; they can either make or break a uniform. I can't believe the Leafs would release something this mismatched and mediocre after knocking it clean out the park with their new logo. Hyperbole my , this is one of the most disappointing unveiling's in recent memory. 4/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elliott Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 maybe they will give an explanation tomorrow on why the hem stripe doesn't match the arm stripes. it doesn't really make very much sense looking at it initially, maybe they have a reason for it. I don't know. it's strange. they aren't that bad, and i'd think they were pretty good even, that is, if the Lightning uniforms didn't exist. Hem stripes of the two teams are now virtually identical. The renderings above will also look way better with numbers on the arms and the accompanying socks, though. Dribbble ... Behance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 There is just enough difference between the thickness of the sleeve stripes and the hem stripes to make it look like a mistake. Therefore, that's a mistake.

BJ Sands Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Even worse, these mismatched jerseys are likely going to be matched with the over-striped socks. This was so easy. Yet they botched it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Yeah. It really looks bad. Hem stripes don't HAVE to match arm stripes. The original senators looked great. The Jets look nice. This just looks awful though. They'd have looked great going full-blast with either stripe style. Half and half just looks awful though. They literally could have just kept their same exact uniforms, dropped the shoulder logos, and swapped the front crests, and been perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 A great logo ruined by a bland uniform design. I mean its okay but I expected something completely different with the uniforms. Its one of those uniforms that will grow on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverSayNever Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Should never screw up an Original 6 brand identity but Leafs are pushing that statement. The 1967 Stanley Cup Champions silhouette was perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockey week Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 So...Detroit's hemline? Which Tampa was essentially using already? Lame. All of the mockups that looked like the Bruins' Winter Classic uniform template looked a whole lot better, with the thicker stripes. This isn't awful, but it IS disappointing. Why do the Leafs hate hemline stripes so badly? Did they listen to San Jose so they can go faster? I'll respect any opinion that you can defend.

jp1409 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 What a terrible downgrade. Two sleeve stripes but a single thicker waist stripe? Seriously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-mer Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Disappointing for sure. If the stripes were at least the same length like Steven Grant's concept they'd be a lot more tolerable. Interested to see the full ensemble. Praying to god they don't have the same sock stripes they usually do. That'd be a real mess at least they have a hanger effect!
